You know, you'd have one comprehensive thread if you would just continue one thread on your truck.
If nothing else, try using a title that has some descritive quality(to your issue).
Crossposting(posting the same thing in more than one thread) is against the rules.
I've merged your thread with this thread(which you posted in as as well).
Each size ball, has a load limit(and tongue weight).
The frame is definitely a limiting factor with an M101A1.
Quite honestly, unless you are an engineer, I would recommend not re-engineering the trailer and simply use it within it's designed limits.
It would help if you told us what trailer you have.
I would avaid spacers if you can.
No matter what axle you have, the trailer frame and hitch or tires may limit your CGVW.
Your advice is contrary to what the TM says. (both should be in neutral)
Use safety chains.
Correct tow-bar procedure is listed in the -10TM.
There are two options depending on distance towed(under 50 mi or over 50 mi).
Also, do not leave your key on without disabling the GP relay.
